Description
general objective of the study was to establish the factors affecting e-procurement in tea processing factories and it was guided by the following objectives; to establish the extent to which system security affects e-procurement implementation, to find out the extent to which cost affects e-procurement implementation, to determine the extent to which legal requirements affects e-procurement implementation in Tea Processing Factories In Nyamira County. This study employed a case study research design to assess e-procurement implementation in Tea Processing Factories in Nyamira County. This study targeted 50 individuals from Tea Processing Factories in Nyamira County. The heads of procurement and stores department and employees among other departments which work with procurement function will be targeted. This study adopted a stratified sampling technique whereby the researcher will carry out a simple random selection of five respondents from the procurement departments and 5 from given sections in finance, marketing and production functions giving a sample size of 40. From the findings it was revealed that; Legal protection of confidential information and the ability to authenticate and enforce electronic contracts were clearly the most cited challenges. Lack of support from the existing legal infrastructure and means for protecting and safeguarding business interest legally while using electronic platform was also seen to be a key challenge. This is clearly corroborated by the fact that currently the ICT policy in existence has not fully created a supportive legal framework where related issues are addressed. The integration of suppliers into a seamless procurement platform as a key objective of any e-procurement system was also noted. Notably internet connectivity and system integration with those of suppliers were key impediments. Lack of trained personnel and necessary support hardware were still key impediments just as was in the case of cost consideration. I recommend that, Supplier enablement to be considered since it might be a component that requires both the firms and its suppliers to work together and create a system that is efficient and mutually integrated. It is Is recommendation as well that both the company should look at a means of working together as a team and build systems that will allow easier e-procurement functionality. More so each party must solicit the support of the other either by sharing related costs, IT platform and resources. Despite internet connectivity being currently a challenge it may not last due to the advent of the fiber optic cable spreading across the country.

Bloodbank management system project report
Blood transfusion safety is a relevant and significant public health issue in the Kisii blood donation Centre. Since most blood banks are still in paper-based system, various disadvantages are experienced by various stakeholders, which endanger the lives of patients and deter the healthcare system. As such, the researchers aimed to design, develop, and implement an online blood bank management system (BBMS). This web-based application allows hospitals in Oman to make inventories of their blood bags online, subsequently, allowing each hospital to check the availability of blood bags anytime. The researchers designed and administered a questionnaire that assess the perceptions of various stakeholders in both manual-based and BBMS. Based on the findings and results, it was found out that these stakeholders perceived online blood bank management system is much better than the manual system. Therefore, with the use of online blood bank management system, blood transfusion process is safe and secured. Threats on improper blood donor documentation, or misplaced records will be totally eradicated. Also, processes involving recording about blood donors, blood bag collection, storage, and inventory will be systematized and organized, hence, improving the healthcare management for blood banks.

Online birth certificate application system project report
For over half a century, Population Studies have reported significant advances in methods of demographic analysis. conceptual and mathematical theories of demographic dynamics and behavior, and the use of these theories and methods to extend scientific knowledge and to inform policy and practice.
Today developing countries Kenya inclusive have been facing problems in birth certificates processing and their records management which has always resulted from excessive corruption, poor security, inappropriate records management criteria and forgery especially by aging government employees who are always struggling to secure their job positions before retiring.
In Kenya the same problem has been experienced in the government employees who utilize the weaknesses in the current manual way of document handling, to keep on falsifying about their true age in the office of the registrar general. This has been as a result of the registrar generates office failure to embrace information technology to help them redesign their business processes by automating some of their operation procedures.
Most low developing countries are facing a number of problems in birth and death certificates processing and production these include; bureaucracy, bribery, corruption, forgery, security and poor records management which is currently done manually. This makes the processing of documents slow and more hectic. Therefore, the government of Kenya needs to come up with an automated birth and death certificates records management system to help reduce these problems through embracing information and communication technology (ICT).
Therefore there is need to carry out research so as to come out with a secure and a more effective automated system to streamline some business processes such as registration and applications to improve efficiency, enhance planning and decision making
An Automated Online Births and Deaths Records Management System is an Information System that serves to capture, store, retrieve and disseminate information about both births and deaths, process certificates and records management in the office of the administrator general of Kenya. It offers a means of information sharing as well as automating the existing manually driven record keeping facility.
